Why Canada?

Journal Entry: Mon Jan 12, 2009, 10:54 PM
Having failed miserably as a good old Southern Boy, I decided to go for a drive.
We were dropping #2 son, Tim off at UNC Asheville (2.5 hours from home) and decided to keep driving.
We hit Tennessee (didn't seem much different to NC..) so we drove on... skimmed the edge of Kentucky It's all lies, didn't see a single horse); Caught up with Virginia, (been there - done that, washed the T shirt, and headed North to West Virginia (go figger!?). Snow was building per state, so we continued... Hello Pennsylvania! - Pittsburgh was a bit dark, so we continued on to decide Right or Left at Lake Erie. Of course the left meant Ohio - then Canada, the right meant New York State, Buffalo and Canada.

Help me decide, I'll check back and see why I should turn left or right in a few hours, after some sleep and while the car is pre-warming.

Thanks...

Looks like your going to hit Canada either way. :D

If you made it past Erie, you've made it past the worst of the notoriously bad winter driving stretches. It is not uncommon for the northwesterly flow across Lake Erie to close I90 through there.

Actually, we are only as far as Grove City PA - and it's snowing. We are probably making the Left or Right decision based on weather reports..

You should have gone farther west! I am on the other edge of Tennessee. Maybe you could find Elvis!

Cute. Very cute. However, the snow on the ground right now is not ice. Yet. It's light, fluffy and easily swept away. BUT the weather is going to get COLD starting this afternoon, so anything slushy or melted is going to freeze. Scared, Oz Man?

I am a childhood friend of Gayle's. We reconnected on FB. I like what I have seen of your work, but most of your gallery is filtered as mature content. I am mature, and quite content. How can I view? -duncan

Sharing

dA is a place for collaboration.
Christmas is a time for sharing.

Let's get this coming year right, and share.

Think about sharing by:

-Opening your home to a person that can't afford that hotel night...

-Bringing in the neighbors toters while they are away...

-Giving some un-needed gifts to charity - or someone that really needs them.

-Reclaim the streets - walk with friends -maybe take someone elses dog for a walk, and go that extra block toward the wrong side of town.

It's the simple stuff that takes the pain away and makes others want to give back.

Try it... it works.
